WALL WITH METALLIC LATHING.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Application filed August 30, 1910.

Patented Sept. 26, 1911. Serial No. 579,629.

T o all whom 'it may concern:

Be it known that I, PAUL SiroLTn, a citizen of the Empire of Germany, residing at Charlottenburg, in the Empire of Germany, have invented a new and useful Wall with Metallic Lathing, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to improvements 1n walls with embedded crossing iron rods or bars, whereby the construction of the lathing and of the wall is facilitated.

The chief improvement consists in making the lathi'ng from a series of parallel rods or bars and a series of binding rods placed in pairs at right angles to and on both sides of the rods or bars of the first series.

Another improvement consists in connecting together the two components of each pair of binding bars in the second series in the middle between any two of the rods or bars of the first series by means of metallic loops or binders, so that they are thereby pressed against the rods or bars of the first The ends of the bars in both series may be embedded in existing walls, a floor and a ceiling, or they may be hooked in metallic clamps or the like introduced into or embedded in the walls, floor and ceiling. The wall can be so constructed from brickwork in any known manner, as to inclose the lathing, Where so preferred, also the rods or bars in the first series may be disposed in pairs and on both sides of one of the two components in each pair of binding rods in the second series, against which they are pressed by connecting them together in the middle between any two of the pairs of binding bars in the second series by means of metallic loops or binders.

I will now proceed to describe myinvention with reference to the accompanying drawing, in Which- Figure l is a diagrammatic elevation of a metallic lathing and a piece of the wall formed from brickwork filling up a few fields of the lathing, Fig. 2 is a vertical cross section through the finished wall and lathing on the line A-B in Fig. 1, Fig. 3 is a vertical cross section through the same on the line C-D in Fig. 1, Fig. f1 is a horizontal section through the same on the line E-F in Fig. 1, Fig. 5 is a similar horizontal section through a modification of the metallic lathing, the'vertical round rods heing replaced by fiat bars, Fig, 6 is a diagrammatic elevation of a modified metallic lathing and a piece of the wall filling up a few fields of the lathing, Fig. 7, is a Vertical cross section on an enlarged scale through the same, the wall being indicated by dotted lines, Fig. 8 is an elevation of the same, and Fig. 9 is ya horizontal section through the same.

Similar letters of reference refer to similar parts throughout the several views.

As is shown at Figs. 1, 2, 3 and 4, the new lathing may be made from a first series of vertical round rods b b disposed at like distances from one another, and a second series of horizontal binding round rods a a placed in pairs and on both sides of the rods I) o of the first series, the pairs of the binding rods a a being disposed at like distances from one another. In Fig. 1 the distance between any two rods Z1 b of the first series is shown to be like the distance between any two pairs of binding rods an of the second series. The binding rods a. a of each pair are connected together by metallic loops or binders c o of any known construction disposed in the middle between any two of the rods b Z), so that the binding rods a a are slightly bent and strongly pressed against the rods o b. In Fig. 1 the ends of the rods in both series are shown to be rectangularly bent and attached to the existing walls 'w fw, the floor f and the ceiling g by means of metallic clamps h h or the like. The rods b b of the first series may also have any other cross section, for example they may be fiat bars b o of rectangular cross section, as is shown in Fig. 5.

The metallic lathing described with reference to Figs. l, 2, 3 and 4c may be first constructed and finished, before the wall z' is erect-ed in brickwork, so as 'to inclose the lathing, as is clearly shown in Fig. 1. Or the metallic lathing may be constructed at the same time as the wall. In this case, first the clamps L it may be introduced or fastened in the floor f, the walls fw fw, and the ceiling g, then the vertical rods or bars b b are hooked into the clamps h la, below and above, next the lowermost horizontal rods a a and the next higher rods a2 a2 are hooked with their ends into the corresponding clamps t L in the walls and are connected together in the middle between any two of the vertical rods Z) Z) or b by means of metallic loops or binders c c. At last the wall z' up to the next higher horizonllO tal rods a2 a2 is built up rfrom brickwork. Thereupon the next following horizontal rods a3 a3 are hooked into the corresponding clamps it It and are connected together between any two of the Vertical rods h b or bars o b by metallic loops or binders, after which the brickwork is continued up to the higher horizontal rods a3 as. In this manner the work may be continued until the wall is finished.

Where so preferred, the rods of the first series may be placed horizontally and those of the second series vertically. Hitherto rods or bars of the first series, that is b 7) in Figs. 14 to 4 and 5 Z9 in Fig. 5, were assumed to be single. `Where so preferred,

they may be disposed in pairs, the same asv the rods in the second series. This is for example illustrated in Figs. 6 to 9, where horizontal rods 7c la are disposed in pairs and on both sides of one rod b2 in each pair of vertical rods. Gtherwise the construction is similar to that of the other lathing described above, and the same letters of reference provided with the index 2 are employed. Where so preferred, the horizontal and vertical rods may also be connected t0- gether at their crossing points by means of loops or binders Z Z of any known construction.

I claim:

A metallic lathing to be embedded in a wall, comprising parallel bars placed in one direction, parallel binding` bars placed in pairs at right angles to said first mentioned bars and on both sides of same, and binders connecting the binding bars of each pair together in the middle between any two of said first mentioned bars, said binders holding said binding bars in pressing engagement with said first mentioned bars.
